President of Parliament Richard Raši (Voice-SD) He thinks there is room for changes in transaction tax to help some groups of entrepreneurs. Although the President of Parliament does not currently see the possibilities for complete abolition of the transaction tax, the coalition voice-SD is open to its changes. Everything in the world is changing, even a transaction tax, said Raši on the Sunday discussion program Politics 24 to JOJ 24.
Raši He expects Finance Minister Ladislav Kamenický (Smer-SD) to come up with analysis, On the basis of which groups of entrepreneurs could be determined for which the transaction tax could be adjusted with a minimum outage of total income for the Treasury.
“So when such a group is found, I am sure that the transaction tax is adjusted for them, because you will achieve what the transactional tax was to bring, so we sacrifice a few million of it, but we may hit a large group of people who are less income and make life easier,” said Raši.
The President of Parliament also touched on the expected consolidation package of austerity measures for 2026. Although the details are not yet known and the Minister of Finance refuses to comment on information on possible measures, According to Raši, voice-SD is unacceptable if the measures should touch families with children, seniors or thirteenth pensions.
Raši questioned the proposals of some economists or opposition politicians to significantly reduce the number of civil servants. “Let’s think about what we are saying, because in the public sector, the police, which are few, are doing, as well as doctors and sisters, who are few, teachers who are few,” He added Raši.
